These fish ap- propriated 70 pounds each and were in excellent condi- tion.

Known jas the “Sabbath of Sabbaths” Yom | Kippur is the most sacred day of the Jewish religious calendar and is observed with fasting, prayer, | and repentance. Services will be conducted at the local synagogue by Rev. Joseph Male. Yom Kippur will begin Tues- day evening with the singing of the ancient melody “Kol Nidre” and will conclude the Ten Days of Penitence which began last week with the observance of the Jewish New Year. Pious Jews will spend the entire day in the syna- gogue, neither eating, nor drink- ing, but devoting it entirely to meditation and prayer. The Day of Atonement is dis- tinguished from most other days in that it is associated with no historical event. The day purely an attempt at self- re- generation and at-one-ment with God. Although its roots reach far back into primitive times and may have some relation to an ancient equinocatial festival, the day re- ceived its present character in the Bible period. Before the beginning of the common era, when the Temple in Jerusalem still stood, the high purposes of the day were ex- jfully decorated with jqueen of the beauties of this city,|Whalton Park, Isodoro Rodriguez, | holi-} is} |banquet took place, was aes red rock|Romolo Diamandi, Eduardo Diaz,| roses which made the place a gor-| Alberto Garcia, Eugene Hernan- geous scene. dez, Daniel Lopez, Julio Lopez, Miss Dorothy Bethancourt,'Sergio Lopez, Carlos Marrero, was escorted to the banquet by|Dewey Riggs, Raul Sibilas, Daniel | Bienvenido Perez, vice president; Vargas, Louis Barnly, Jesus Gar-| of Club Marti.
